SLUbball Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 2 minutes ago, DeSmetBilliken said: I get where you're coming from, and honestly I think that if The Pelican's suggestion that we'd have another commit along with Goodwin is true, the other recruit is someone other than Tilmon. With that said, do you consider Western Kentucky to be a program capable of landing a Tilmon-level recruit? If your answer is no, I'll tell you that at this moment, the #10 recruit in the country is committed there. Tilmon is in the 20-25 range. Yes I have indeed seen that, but the head coach of WKU has been recruiting that kid since his days at Texas A&M as an assistant, and in fact I'm pretty sure that kid was thought to be going there until that coach left for WKU. So I think it had a lot to do with the relationship there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SLUbball Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 I just saw something that said a combo guard from Florida who is a top 100 prospect is supposed to commit to Illinois soon. Maybe this is why Goodwin is going to SLU? Illinois will be very loaded with guards when he steps foot on campus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea I am sure Groce told the top 50 kid from Illinois who has played with Tilmon growing up that maybe he should look elsewhere because there is a top 100 kid from Florida that may commit soon. Or I am sure Goodwin is highly following all recruits around the country. Or you are an Illinois fan really which is why you have contradicted yourself before saying doesn't matter who Tilmon's coach is he will get to the NBA but he should play in Big 10 because better competition if he wants to make it to the NBA.

brianstl Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Jesus, Illini fans are a bitter bunch. They are accusing SLU of paying Goodwin, attacking Goodwin's character for not choosing them and questioning his ability as a player. At least, we only label a recruit a tool when he passes on us.

BigMouthBilliken Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 SLU is getting played by Chris May. Crews will be be back next season after Ford takes over at Duke. Word on the street is Coach K is retiring after the olympics. A very reliable source (cough cough the voices in my head) say Tatum will be a Billiken in 2017!!!!
